Council now backs CCTV Hans Lovejoy

Council now supports, in principle, the use of CCTV in Byron Bay. The reversal on the matter comes after it was voted on at last Thursday’s meeting. The note of CCTV support was included within the Draft Safer Community Compact policy which had been on public submission. Crs Ross Tucker and Jan Barham voted against the motion. It’s welcoming news to Byron Bay Liquor Accord chairperson, Elke van Haandel, who is also general manager of the Beach Hotel. ‘The Accord and police cannot fix the issues of the town,’ she told The Echo. ‘We need the Council’s support on many factors contributing to the town’s issues, namely, the installation of CCTV, improved lighting in the CBD, and to improve the transport hub.’ She says the Accord meets every eight weeks and members are made up of representatives of all major venues in town (bottle shops and restaurants), local police, Byron Youth Services (BYS) and the chamber of commerce. ‘The council is invited each time but most often doesn’t attend,’ she says. The purpose of the Accord Ms van Haandel says, ‘is for us to work togeth-

er as an industry to introduce practical solutions to liquor-related problems. ‘Recently we have been focusing on the town’s alcohol-related assaults. It’s important to note that this has always been Byron Bay’s issue. There hasn’t been a significant spike in assaults although the media will lead us to believe that; it’s a longstanding issue that the police and the accord are working closely together to address.’

Not dampened, just gold

No significant spike in assaults: Liquor Accord At the last BBLA meeting in April, she says the Accord pledged their support to: impose drink restrictions in our venues to promote RSA (for example, no doubles, plastic retainers to replace glass, limited drink purchases after midnight, stricter RSA practices), target illicit drug use within venues, improve communication of security between venues regarding problem patrons, support the Designated Driver campaign, to continue the current selfimposed 2am lockout and to support maximum capacities in venues. ‘We also support greater police presence and greater enforcement action from police for venues, staff and problem patrons.’

Broken Head Road trees look to be saved Luis Feliu

Councillors have voted to save scores of native trees in a wildlife corridor earmarked to be felled by Council staff. The work was part of the rebuilding of a section of Broken Head Road, which sparked an outcry from the mayor and community. Twenty large trees were felled last month, unbeknown to the mayor, and around 60 more were planned to be chopped down for the road widening. Then last week, only days after she succeeded with an urgency motion to halt the works, staff further angered her by recommending the roadworks south of Broken Head Reserve continue, including the felling of more mature trees. Staff in their report had warned

that funding from the Roads and Maritime Services (RMS) for half the budgeted $570,000 project was tied and could be lost if they did not proceed. They also said the road’s poor pavement condition exposed Council to a risk of accident-insurance claims and that Council had a duty of care as a roads authority to maintain and improve the road for public safety. But Cr Barham successfully moved for Council to carry on with the works but without having to finalise the road widening or remove any more trees. The move was opposed by Crs Ross Tucker, Diane Woods and Tony Heeson. Half the cost of the project was being funded under the government’s REPAIR program for regional roads. The Council will now proceed with

the rehabilitation of the road using developer-contribution (section 94) funds and will ask the RMS if the grant funding can be used for other road improvements along a greater stretch of Broken Head Road. A report has also been sought on the environmental repair work now needed for the areas being cleared and to see what improvements or mitigation works for wildlife conservation along the road can be carried out. Cr Barham told media before last week’s meeting that widening the road by removing vegetation in a wildlife corridor was uneccesary to improve safety and she’d rather council spend the money ‘on the surface people drive on, rather than three metres either side’. Staff said the project was not required to go to tender under Local Government Act regulations.

Moving a child into supported womanhood

Big Scrub

They say it takes a village to raise a child. Local program facilitator and co-founder of the Pathways Into Womanhood Moana Pearl feels that in today’s world it is rare that the village helps bring up the children. ‘It is more important than ever to assist our youth on their first steps to young adulthood’, says Moana. ‘Rites of passage are conscious and public demarcations to help us all define the movement from one stage of life to another. They have been in traditional societies since the beginning of time.’ Moana says that without these clear and well-supported gateways our youth are, knowingly or unknowingly, initiating themselves. Risk taking and challenge are part of testing our ability to move beyond known boundaries.

‘Today’s girls are facing the challenges of social pressure, in person and online, academic pressures, peer pressures, oversexualisation in the media, unrealistic expectations, and conflicting messages’, says Mo-

ana. ‘Our girls are responding with clear messages of pain and distress. Eating disorders, selfharm drugs, binge drinking and depression are reaching alarming statistics. Girls are crying out to be seen and heard.’ Pathways is a five-day residential program that supports girls as they transition into young womanhood. ‘At this time of great physical and emotional change, we provide contemporary, communitybased rites of passage and their mothers or a mentor. There is also a Pathways To Manhood program for boys. Moana will be presenting a free talk on rites of passage for teenage girls on Wednesday at the Mullum Civic Hall from 7pm. The next Pathways Into Womanhood program will be held locally in September. For more info visit: www. pathwaysfoundation.org.au.

Warner is new acting GM Byron Council have appointed Mr Phil Warner, executive manager water and recycling, as acting general manager from June 22 to July 1, 2012. The decision was made in a closed session at last Thurs-

day’s meeting after current GM Graeme Faulkner’s surprise resignation on Tuesday May 29. Council also thanked Mr Faulkner for his service to Byron Shire Council and wished him well for his future.

Committed to saving our hospitals Luis Feliu

The public campaign to retain 24-hour emergency medical services including an overnight doctor at Mullumbimby Hospital has been ramped up as the local health authority continues its push to implement the controversial plan. A second public meeting to protest the cost-cutting move will go ahead on Monday, June 18, at the Mullumbimby Civic Centre at 7pm and a steering committee involving local nurses, doctors and the public to coordinate the campaign has been formed. Last Saturday week, over 100 people protested outside Lismore Base Hospital against cuts to services at Mullumbimby, Coraki and Bonalbo hospitals. The introduction of the proposed ‘trial’ to replace Mullumbimby Hospital’s emergency overnight doctor with a telemedicine video-conferencing link to Tweed Hospital operated by a nurse has now been pushed back from July 1 to late October. The delay in the start of the new rostering and system, called the ‘Connecting Critical Care System’, follows a meeting last week between nurses and Northern NSW Local Health District (NNSWLHD) chief executive Chris Crawford. Mr Crawford said it was agreed at the meeting that ‘a couple of months should be allowed for the nurses to get used to the system with a medical officer rostered to provide onsite support to the emergency department at night’. He said nurses would also be provided with copies of policies and protocols used at other regional hospitals where there was no onsite medical officer (doctor) to support the nurses as well as more data about other regional NSW hospitals where ‘nurses receive telemedicine or just telephone support from a medical officer based at another site, which can occur over a whole weekend, or in some cases, for a period of several weeks’. Mr Crawford said it was also agreed to hold a further meet-

ing with the Mullumbimby nursing staff after the new system had been in use for around two months and nurses had considered the extra information to see if their concerns had been addressed.

their concerns, he was ‘intent on pushing ahead with the trial’. Ms Boyle said doctors and nurses feared once the trial began, there was ‘no going back’ and the hospital would be without an overnight emergency doctor.

Coroner slams hospital care A coroner has slammed Lismore Base Hospital as ‘incapable of providing emergency care for the region’ in his findings on the death of a man who suffered a stroke at the hospital last year. Coroner Jeff Linden was scathing of the hospital in his findings last Thursday after a three-day inquest into the death of 40-year-old Goonellabah man Glen Peter Rubbo. Mr Linden said overworked staff were forced to treat patients in ‘dilapidated conditions’ to such an extent that an upgrade of the emergency department could not wait until completion of the $80-million planned refurbishment and expansion of the emergency department. Local media reported that Mr Linden called for urgent action to expand the emergency department until the proposed expansion was completed. He also recommended that blood-analysis facilities that could have prevented Mr Rubbo’s death if it had been in place, be made available urgently at the hospital. Mr Rubbo had attended the hospital complaining of feeling dizzy and unsteady on his feet and collapsed in the carpark outside the emergency department where he had been waiting because the waiting room was full. A post mortem indicated early features of stroke were not recognised by medical staff.

But NSW Nurses Association ‘Nurses are wary that they’re delegate at the hospital, Shauna not pushed into a position Boyle, told The Echo that de- where they feel they’re unsupspite Mr Crawford ‘listening’ to ported, and though they are

experienced in medical care, they don’t feel comfortable put in a position outside their stated role. ‘This new system changes the whole health-care delivery model of nurses working in emergency services. We don’t know what problems we’ll have; it could put them in a quite dangerous position. ‘There’s a lot of issues we still have concerns over and have to deal with, such as the legal responsibility of nurses put in that role, the reliability of the telemedicine system based on the internet, especially when you take a doctor out of the equation and only have a nurse on site. They could make nurses practitioners for the new role and pay them accordingly, but that hasn’t even been considered, and the health service seems to have a different idea of what constitutes consultation with a community. ‘It’s important for the community to reaffirm that they are committed to keeping 24-hour medical services at the hospital with a doctor available at night.’ Ms Boyle said Mr Crawford rejected an invitation to address next Monday’s public meeting ‘so he could answers questions people are asking’.

Boozy troublemakers targetted by Lismore Liquor Accord Luis Feliu

The Lismore business community last week announced a unified approach to crack-down on alcohol-fuelled violence. Badly-behaving patrons who refuse to leave licensed premises when asked will be banned from three months to life under the new barring policy. Lismore Liquor Accord chairman Steve Bortolin said the policy would ensure consistency when dealing with patrons involved in alcohol-

related violence and anti-social behaviour in or around licensed premises. He says the policy applies at all member venues, and informs patrons of the length of time they will be banned for a range of incidents. ‘For example, under the policy, a patron causing malicious damage in the immediate vicinity of an accord venue may be banned from that venue for six months,’ Mr Bortolin said. ‘This policy promotes individual responsibility and sets

Food share program

an acceptable standard of behaviour in and around all of our local licensed venues. ‘It spreads the message to troublemakers that our local community will not accept their bad behaviour’. Mr Bortolin added the Lismore Liquor Accord had implemented many strategies over the years to reduce the impact of alcohol consumption on the local community. The scheme will be evaluated after three months to see how effective it is.

Liberation Larder, providers of two free lunches per week for those in need in Byron Bay, have a new system for visitors and locals: they are asking them to volunteer in return for a meal and groceries. According to the Larder’s president Helen Hamilton, the most significant change is a major decrease in backpacker numbers accompanied by an increase in the number of locals.

Council is $222,000 per year for security patrols, camera monitoring and maintenance. ‘The original cost for installation was approximately $190,000 in 1999 and the funding came from Lismore City Wide and Lismore Chamber of Commerce, who did fundraising. Lismore Rotary West also did fundraisers and donated money.

‘Council itself directly contributed approximately $50,000.’ She said that police use the supplied DVD footage in investigations and court proceedings. ‘Council is not privy to information on successes in court, but every DVD of camera footage relevant to a particular incident has been upheld in court.’

Simon is wished good luck by wife Jane and daughter Frida at Bangalow Farmer’s Market on Saturday morning.

Current councillor Simon Richardson has thrown his hat in for mayor after current mayor Jan Barham endorsed him at the Bangalow Farmers Market on Saturday morning. Cr Barham said, ‘Simon has served on council with an enthusiasm for the community and a commitment to core Green values of caring for the community, protecting the environment and our food bowl; respecting the voice of our residents, understanding and appreciating the economic importance of tourism and the creative industries. Simon has the experience of being a councillor and the practical knowledge of the complexity of local government and the importance of balancing a di-

verse shire’s needs.’ Mr Richardson is a husband to Jane, a father to three-yearold Frida and is soon to be a dad again. He is a high school teacher at Cape Byron Steiner School and lives in Federal. Mr Richardson says he wants to be mayor because, ‘I am passionate about our Shire; for all the challenges it faces, it is a wonderful place to live and to bring up a family. ‘I want to preserve the past successes of the Greens in keeping the Shire protected from overdevelopment and its communities strong, while meeting the new challenges ahead of us with innovation, and intelligence. I’m about community, sustainability and integrity.’

Community Independent’s REAL vision

A new group of locals will be standing for this year’s Council elections under the name Community Independents. The stated vision of the group is Keep it REAL – Responsible, Ethical, Accountable, Leadership. Byron Community Centre manager Paul Spooner (pictured) is leading the ticket, and describes the focus of candidates standing for the group as, ‘Community values, cultural activities, local economy and environmental sensitivity’. Mr Spooner says, ‘the group will provide a voting alternative between the Greens and the conservative candidates.

Candidates will be represent the whole Shire and across a range of interests and involvements. ‘The final team will be announced in coming weeks. ‘I believe local government should be about people not parties,’ he says. ‘We will be people who are not only passionate about the Byron Shire but are also willing to step up and act for the good of our community.’ He says the group at this stage is focusing on gathering the views of as many residents as possible. ‘We want to identify the key issues of importance to those

who live in this Shire. Not just those with the loudest voices.’ To facilitate the listening process, the group has established a facebook page: www. facebook.com/communi-

tyindependents and is posing a series of questions to residents over the coming weeks. A website for the group is also being developed at www.communityindependents.net.au. ‘This listening process started last week with the question: “What do you think the top three things Byron Shire Council should do?” ‘Already some clear issues are emerging – the state of the roads and public facilities, greater consultation, the local economy and how we can benefit from tourism and festivals.’ To find out more email communityindependents@gmail. com.

A benefit to the community Many community groups have benefitted from the Northern Rivers Community Foundation and this year they are hoping to double up on last year’s gifts. In 2011 the Foundation dispersed $50,000 in grants to 23 organisations, ranging from the a new oven for the Lismore Soup Kitchen to writing workshops for people fighting addictions. Last week founding chairman Christopher Dean, pictured centre, caught up with the BUDDI project for an impromptu jam and a tap on a drum at the YAC in Byron Bay. Donations to the Foundation before 30 June can be claimed as a tax deduction for this financial year. For more visit www.nrcf.org.au. Photo Eve Jeffery

New draft rezoning changes to LEP Cr Barham said she would take the question on notice. When contacted by The Echo, Council’s executive manager of planning Ray Darney said it was ‘impossible to quantify what impact, if any, the draft LEP may have on any land values.’

Hans Lovejoy

It’s a case of ‘wait and see’ if sweeping new draft rezonings will affect property prices after Council signed off on changes to the LEP (Local Environment Plan) last Thursday. Potentially most at risk is the value of properties in coastal areas, says Belongil property ‘Land values not owner John Vaughn. planning matter’ In Thursday’s Council’s pub‘Land values can be affected lic access he asked mayor Jan Barham, ‘What impact will the by a broad range of factors‌’ new zonings have with mort- he said, adding that values are not a planning matter for gages and property prices?’

consideration under the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979.’ The LEP is being overhauled by the state and a new template provided to councils require that the current land zonings are transferred to a ‘like’ category. ‘The current 7(f2) urban coastal lands zone is proposed to be zoned as E2 environmental conservation zone within the new draft LEP,’ says Mr Darney. ‘The E2 zone within the new draft LEP, together with clause 4.2A, is consistent with the current 7(f2) zone and fea-

tures the same land usages and provisions as per the current Byron LEP 1988.’ He says the proposed objectives of the E2 environmental conservation zone are to protect, manage and restore areas of high ecological, scientific, cultural or aesthetic values. It also aims to ‘identify and protect environmentally sensitive coastal land‌ and to prevent inappropriate development that would be adversely affected by, or that would adversely affect, coastal processes.’

Ewingsdale multi-purpose facility floor replaced A new timber floor at The Byron Regional Sports and Cultural Complex (BRSCC) has been successfully installed, says Council, bringing the multi-purpose facility a step closer to being ready for use. The construction contractor has given the keys to Council staff and will brief them next week on the facility’s operation. The floor was replaced following an inspection by the builder in April, who found the original flooring unsatisfactory. The replacement floor has come at no cost to the com-

munity, say Council. The new facility features two multi-use courts marked for basketball, netball, futsal, volleyball and many other sports.

Managers to be appointed In addition, there are two meeting rooms and two multiuse activity rooms suitable for dance classes, karate, art classes and many other community uses available for hire. Council’s acting executive manager society and culture,

Greg Ironfield, said the next stage is to appoint permanent managers for the facility. ‘We’ve engaged casual staff to assist with the running of the building until a permanent management arrangement is secured. ‘Management is currently considering submissions from relevant parties to run the complex and these will be reported to Council at the end of June for consideration, he said. ‘Now the building has been handed to Council, we will be speaking with the sporting and

community groups that have already expressed an interest to use the centre about their usage needs,’ he said. Mr Ironfield said procedures are currently being put in place for things like opening and closing the centre, use of the facilities and setting up of equipment, etc. Mr Ironfield thanked the community for their patience as they waited for the centre doors to open. Sporting and cultural groups interested in using the indoor facility can contact Council on 6626 7000.

Slavery and imperialism still rule Genocide is on our doorstep and it looks like we are complicit. One of our closest neighbours, the West Papuans, are being systematically murdered and enslaved by the Indonesians, says indigenous activist and musician Ronnie Kareni. It’s a topic we don’t hear much about in the mainstream press, he says, because both Australia and Indonesia benefit from stripmining the region’s resources and subjugating its inhabitants. To most Australians, it sits to the left of Papua New Guinea. It’s not something I am proud of, but until I met Kareni and Blue King Brown’s Natalie Pa’apa’a, I had little idea about the place. And that appears to be how the Australian and Indonesian governments like it. The ‘free press’ like it as well, because advertisers who pay their wages are also profiting from the mining and rainforest logging, says Kareni. In light of that, it’s always worth thinking about where your next outdoor ensemble originates from. Since the Indonesian military occupation in the 1960s, it’s estimated over 100,000 West Papuans have been killed, according to www.freewestpapua.com.au. But Ronnie says studies from Sydney University in 2009/10 claim it to be around half a million. Its population of 3.5 million has been reduced to around 48 per cent indigenous, with the other half mostly Indonesian. It’s a stark difference to the time before the occupation, he says. Perhaps invading underdeveloped countries is not personal; after all, the indigenous are just getting in the way of expected returns on investments (ROI). Case in point is that the Freeport gold mine in West Papua is one of the largest on the planet. It harks back to the days of King Leopold II of Belgium, possibly the most evil imperialist to ever live. This fucker is responsible for the death of an estimated five to 15 million Congolese around the late 1800s. Eventually he was forced to hand over his private enterprise to the Belgian government, but that wasn’t before he extracted a fortune from the Congo. Initially it was ivory, but after a rise in the price of rubber, he enslaved natives to collect sap from rubber plants. It’s an uncomfortable truth that almost all wealth in human history has been created from slavery and the consumption of finite and polluting resources. Even more uncomfortable is a news cycle generally wasted on petty crime and celebrity gossip. At least we can be thankful that there are other options. To learn more visit www.freewestpapua.com.au.

The North Coast’s best online news

The latest gabfest on how to stop the human race – and by extension, the planet – stewing in its own juices will be held at the home of summits and street parades, Rio de Janeiro, on June 20–22. For those interested in historical coincidences, on June 20 in 1947 Benjamin ‘Bugsy’ Siegel was murdered at the mansion of his girlfriend Virginia Hill, in 1977 piping of crude oil from North Alaska began, and more auspiciously in 451 Flavius Aetius had a victory over Attila the Hun at the Battle of Chalons. Will the 2012 United Nations Conference on Sustainable Development, otherwise known as Rio+20, provide any history as significant as the above examples or will it just add more hot air to the sum of warmth enveloping the Earth? The excitement-free UN website on the gathering is at www.uncsd2012.org/rio20/index.html while the non-government organisations (NGOs) have set up camp at www.earthsummit2012.org. According to the UN, â€˜â€Ś world leaders, along with thousands of participants from governments, the private sector, NGOs and other groups, will come together to shape how we can reduce poverty, advance social equity and ensure environmental protection on an ever more crowded planet to get to the future we want.’ Ah, the future we want – do our wants for a cheap coffee conflict with the needs for clean water in east Africa or the lifestyle of the pretty birds in PNG? ‘No man is an island’ as John Donne noted in Meditation XVII in 1624. The boffins at the University of Sydney have been looking into the connections. According to their research published last week in Nature,

30 per cent of threatened species are at risk because of consumption in the developed world. The study mapped the world economy to trace the global trade of goods implicated in biodiversity loss such as coffee, cocoa, and lumber. ‘Our findings can be used to improve the regulation and product labelling of thousands of internationally traded products,’ said lead author Professor Manfred Lenzen optimistically in a media release. The study evaluated over five billion supply chains connecting consumers to over 15,000 commodities produced in 187 countries. This was cross-referenced with a global register of 25,000 endangered and vulnerable species. ‘Until now these relationships have only been poorly understood,’ Prof Lenzen continued. ‘Our extraordinary number crunching, which took years of data collection and thousands of hours on a supercomputer to process, lets us see these global supply chains in amazing detail for the first time.’ The media release again:

‘Among exporting countries, where the species losses actually occur, on average 35 per cent of recorded threats can be linked to export-led production. In Madagascar, Papua New Guinea, Sri Lanka and Honduras, this figure is 50 to 60 per cent. ‘Papua New Guinea, for example, has 171 listed species threatened by export industries including mining, timber, coffee, and cocoa, to a few large trading partners, including Australia. Agricultural exports from Indonesia, another Australian trading partner, affect 294 species, including tigers. ‘Australia’s trove of unique species means that despite its high consumption, it is a net exporter of implicated goods including mining and agricultural products whose production often drives habitat loss and pollution that threaten particular species.’ The researchers hope sustainability labels become the norm, not the exception, helped by the information in their study. ‘We shouldn’t let retailers make sustainability labels a

premium product,’ said Barney Foran, a co-author of the study. ‘We should ask that they always stock products that are made responsibly, from the bottom shelf to the top shelf.’ On the production side, the authors recommend companies be required to make foreign suppliers accountable to the same production standards they hold at home. The authors also say countries should harmonise environmental laws so producers don’t simply relocate to the country with the least protections. Good luck with all that, and kiss cheap TVs goodbye. See the full report at http://bit.ly/KgjwNJ. Last week in Echonetdaily we ran news of the UN’s preRio+20 news that ‘abrupt and possibly irreversible changes to the life-support functions of the planet are likely to occur’ if we don’t get our shit together. These include rising sea levels, increased frequency and severity of floods and droughts, and the collapse of fisheries. No man (or woman) is an island. Set the supercomputer to ‘survive’. Q Mungo is back next week.

The long struggle for the health services we deserve Having been involved in the long saga of trying to bring to fruition the proposal recommended by the NSW Health Department to have the Byron Shire served by a single, central hospital I can very clearly understand the disappointment, anger and frustration expressed at the recent public meeting held at the Mullumbimby Ex-Services Club. This single shire hospital, to replace the then Bangalow hospital together with the hospitals at Byron Bay and Mullumbimby, was first proposed in 1982 following an extensive regional review and study covering the whole of the state’s north-east. During the 30 years since the adoption of the then NSW Health Commission’s recommendation to close the Bangalow hospital and retain the other two shire hospitals until a new single hospital was built, with the promise of no diminution of services, the only positive has been the purchase of

land for the new centre. Sadly the facts are that services have been constantly eroded despite numerous, hollow assurances given to the community that this would not happen. These reductions, which include, among many others, a significant reduction in the number of available beds, have resulted in large numbers of patients now having to be sent out of the shire for treatment which was available locally in 1982. I can assure Janine and Gill that they have the full support of all the other members of the Byron Shire Health Services Community Action Group as we continue our long struggle to ‘look after our own closer to home’.

also a popular tourist destination and more recently a venue for major music events which all bring thousands of extra people here. A population of this size – both permanent residents and visitors – surely warrants, at the very least, one doctor on call for emergencies around the clock. (The low level of remuneration for the local rostered doctors is another issue which urgently needs to be addressed.) The absence of a night-shift doctor will make things more stressful for the night nurse and will likely require more ambulance transfers to Tweed Hospital. Such costly transfers will negate any imagined cost saving flowing from the proposed cut in our local service. The ‘low use’ argument is also irrational: do we throw out stand-by fire-fighting rosters for the night shift because this is a low-use time? And is Tweed Hospital ready for increased call on their ample of the use of Soft Power by US president Obama – presumably meaning that the US ‘got what it wanted’ without getting in harm’s way or suffering any PR or image damage.

Local council contenders get their mojo working Q I believe Hermann Goering may have been misquoted on the back page of The Echo last week when referring to the new Byron Council election group the Community Independents. However, perhaps HG and some currently elected councillors may have cause to reach for their guns when prospective candidates begin to speak about community consultation and common sense approaches to problem solving in the Shire. ‘Shoot first and ask questions

later’ was also originally popularised by Hermann and seems to be a sentiment alive and well in Byron when it comes to installing CCTV in its streets. I agree with Paul Spooner (Echo, June 5) when he suggests that we should explore more creative solutions to ensure our streets are safe places to be at night. We all want our streets to be safe, but CCTV is expensive, arguably invasive and may not prevent crime at the end of the day anyhow! Security cameras

are already prevalent in town. See how many you can spot on a walk up Jonson Street. Nine out of ten people walking around Byron are carrying high-definition video cameras in their pockets masquerading as mobile phones. Perhaps a community Facebook page entitled ‘Behaving Badly in Byron’ where residents and visitors can post video of offenders online might prove more effective? It would certainly be cheaper! We are a community of

clever and creative thinkers. Surely we can do better than CCTV? Byron Council may be under-resourced but it often overlooks one of its greatest resources, the hearts, minds and voices of its residents. Michael Moriarty

Community Independents Q Council is an exciting yet gritty and robust place. Decisions are made that affect us all on an immediate and local level. Alas, Council is often used as punching bag for some

with (narrow) agendas. Council decisions should be made by merging an awareness of state, national and global issues with a strong sense of what supports a thriving local community. For this reason I’m announcing my candidacy for the September 8 election. Some will already know me as the presenter of BayFM’s program on local issues,The Spin Cycle.

I am an attention-seeking exhibitionist, so I was thrilled to see that Byron is having a SlutWalk, a great opportunity to dress up and show off! Then when I read the front page article I was really dissapointed to discover that it’s been overorganised. It’s been given a dress code! When SlutWalk started in North America it quickly spread all over the states as attention seekers everywhere seized the opportunity to parade in protest against whatever – oppression, discrimination, anything. The point was that you could dress up. In freaky costumes. Only in Byron could SlutWalk become an administrated, contrived event. I don’t like that they’ve tried to define what it’s all about. I don’t like being advised on a dresssimple code, but it is cool they want to invoke grand spiritual www.echo.net.au

Mick Malloy

Suffolk Park Q I can think of very few things that are as un-Byron as CCTV. The constant surveillance and invasion of privacy would herald our debasement as a bastion of freedom and fearless self expression. What’s more, I see no reason that public funds be used so that the drink/drug barons can maintain their profits. Yes, there is a problem with drunken rage and assaults in Byron, but to expect CCTV to make a difference is silly. CCTV only treats the symptoms of the problem. It doesn’t stop people getting drunk.

symbolism with the goddess. We have a wonderful abundance of talented people here, so it’s too ironic that our SlutWalk organisers have an agenda to suppress what ‘can become quite risqué’ and make it uniform, cohesive, simpler. It had the potential to be a world’s best show of local beautiful people, and some colourful people, celebrating themselves. But instead of dressing up and raising awareness of ourselves we are being told to create awareness of ‘the issue’. Will Mae Wilde steal the show in a stunning outfit? Can other beautiful people vying for local celebrity status manage within the confines? Does bureaucratic organisation go on at every level here?

If we seriously want to stop drunken assaults, we need to curtail the supplies of alcohol, which the police and our own mayor have pointed out. Byron has way too many liquor outlets and they are open all day and most of the night. The cries of pain from the drink/drug barons are a sign that this strategy will work. So sad about its effect on their profits. Say ‘No’ to CCTV and ‘Yes’ to limiting the supply of alcohol and return Byron’s private streets to calm and safety. Andrew Hall

Comment/Pin This Up

The future we want has a golden age for humankind ur immediate and longterm future is full of the promise of a golden age for humankind. We are now on a precipice, at a crossroads in our history where for the first time humanity has a collective enlightened vision. Science and religion are almost inseparable with their understanding of the sense of Oneness, which connects everything from the smallest organism to the vast expanses of the universe – and, perhaps, beyond. In the past these understandings and glimpses into such expanded realities have been restricted to the elite few. Up until now we have been able to count the number of standout visionaries and enlightened sages who have guided, predicted and fashioned our future. Now there are many alive today who exist with this expanded awareness, so many that we are all being touched by it. Regardless of our circumstances, we are all getting a part of this action; we are all becoming part of this globally enlightened consciousness that is hastening us towards this glorious positive future. The future we want. The future we must have is essentially one of co-operation, not competition. This new future depends upon

Local environmental artist John Dahlsen was invited by the United Nations to write an essay for the upcoming Rio+20 conference – www.un.org/en/sustainablefuture/dahlsen.shtml communities forging together to create balanced lifestyles. This is already happening on a grassroots level in some of the more advanced communities worldwide, where people are beginning to farm and share their freshly grown produce, whether it be vegetables or fresh-baked bread and eggs. People realise that the way we have been treating this planet is unsustainable. It’s also unsustainable for us to treat our bodies with neglect by eating overly processed foods. We don’t need to revert to becoming cave men. However, we do need to safeguard our future by planning to become more natural in just about every way. Unsustainable ways of living have been at best a misunderstanding through accepting this reality for so long, and at worst a sign of enormous greed on the part of big business and ourselves. The future we want will bring a natural end to these outdated modes of living. The future will have love and awareness of higher consciousness as the basis of our interconnectedness. This will be the future we want, a world where business develops safeguards for consumers that ensure only

products with awareness and have expanded consciousness at the core of their inception. In places of greatest population concentration, for example, the future we want will have in all buildings fresh water captured from their surfaces; energy needs will be generated only from renewable sources including solar and wind. Our future methods of transport will of course also be transformed, as a result of the cessation of carbon-emitting modes of transport. Bicycleways and walkways will be prevalent and more popular as people wish to stay healthy and fit through regular daily exercise. In the future there will be no poverty and all nations will join together as a global, borderless reality to ensure all people of the earth have adequate food and a balanced, prosperous lifestyle.

All forms of visual and airborne pollution will be nonexistent so that once again we will be able to visit and walk among our cities and enjoy streetscapes with beautiful gardens and terraces complemented by contemporary art, architecture and design, all of which will be created with ecologically friendly intention. As a way of further achieving these future wants, we need to take note of organisations such as Transition Towns, for example, a grassroots network of communities dedicated to

building resilience in response to peak oil, climate destruction and economic instability. We will all benefit by looking at this model, where innovators are using across-the-board creative adaptations of energy production, health, education, economy and agriculture as road maps to a sustainable future. We are entering a golden age where it will be no longer possible for outdated beliefs and structures to exist. The future we want across our planet will be a reflection of these ideas and everything that does exist into the future will only exist because humanity has embraced this new way. All structures which lag behind this enlightened approach will simply disintegrate. They will cease to operate as functional entities and associated living environments will no longer be habitable for hu-

mans. This can only be seen as a positive direction for humankind as we see everything we love restored to us. It is natural evolution that our future will evolve this way. It will be appropriate that the very best that we are able to offer in terms of our collective consciousness will create the very type of golden future that we want. As humankind makes the shift into the golden age, with the necessity of being intelligent and enlightened in our hearts, all else will follow.

Some members of the band have played together for more than a decade and this is the first full-length album we have recorded and released. It definitely reflects the sound we have developed over time. How has your sound developed and changed since those early days? Our sound has changed as different members have come and gone. We are also moving from a predominately guitar-based sound to a more synth-influenced sound. Reggae is roots You guys are often compared to Fat Freddy’s Drop… are you flattered, or do you music and dub is technology and our sound will always draw on both. think that this overlooks your own very distinct sound?

DIANA TAKES THE RAILS Diana Anaid takes time out from recording her fifth album to do what she loves most – getting on the road and playing gigs. Her music possesses what Rolling Stone describes as an ‘emotional and sometimes primal energy’. It is as if all she has survived has removed any fear of total emotional surrender to the music. Diana’s organic and honest approach to songwriting has garnered a loyal fan base as well as critical success for her albums including 2004’s Beautiful Obscene, which crossed Diana into the mainstream and saw her first

Sleepless in Byron

Why do you think your music is so sensual? I think it’s the combined power of the rich music and pulsing rhythms as well as the connections between each player on stage. We feed off each other’s and the audience’s energy and because the music is so uninhibited and bold, I think it invites people to let go and feel like they’re part of an organic, yet exotic and intoxicating, experience. How do you transcend cultural boundaries? Mzaza’s aim is to create music that has a flavour that will interest many. With influences from a number of different traditions and our own original spin, we combine traditional and contemporary elements to create something that everyone can enjoy. We hope that through this we can spark an interest for the broader audience in some of these less-well-known and obscure music traditions so they might endeavour to learn more about them. However, Mzaza also believes strongly in maintaining a deep integrity and consideration when using music from foreign traditions. All the members of Mzaza strive to learn as much as they can about the music and how it operates within these cultures. We always aim to communicate traditional elements in an authentic way so that audience members from some of these cultural backgrounds are able to appreciate and connect on a more cultural level. What goes through your mind when you are playing? Of course we are thinking, feeling and listening to what each other is doing. We’re all pretty familiar with the rhythms/forms of these kinds of music but we’re conscious of the overall sound and those stops, the Rolling Stones and the Stems, all the way back through Iggy Pop, the Waterboys and the Motels, with a side detour to X, You Am I and The Beasts of Bourbon, the band has a scintillating and ever-expanding repertoire. Featuring members of The THE POSTM Re-Mains, the ORTEMISTS’ LIVE KARAOKE JU internationally KEBOX AT TH B A E N G A LOW BOWLO touring country ON SATURD AY rock-and-roll act, the Postmortemists guarantee the wildest karaoke experience you’ll get outside Korea. If it had decent rock bands. You get to star in your own band, if only for a song. The show kicks off at 7pm. And it’s free. The Postmortemists’ Live Karaoke Jukebox returns to the Bangalow Bowlo on Saturday.

builds and tempo-stretches of eastern European and MiddleEastern music that make it energetic and moody. How did the six of you come to be playing together? Some of us met through a Middle-Eastern and Balkan music session called Waziz. It’s a group of musicians who meet weekly to teach each other songs. Nowadays we meet at the Multicultural Development Association but over the last 10 years have mostly had our sessions hosted at a variety of West End cafes. Pauline and Greta are ‘original’ Mzazans; they have been playing together for seven years! Jordan and Stephen joined a couple of years later and John and Gwen have been with Mzaza for a year. Originally Pauline found Greta by leaving her number in cafes and asking Lebanese shopkeepers if they could pass it on to anyone they saw play Middle-Eastern instruments so I guess it was a bit of a fluke! How do you ensure that so many creative minds end up sharing the same vision? In a way it is our shared love for different cultures and traditional sounds that have brought us together. So we know we are together for that reason first and foremost. In terms of how we create music that reflects this and how exactly we put our touch on those traditional sounds – we keep an open dialogue and make sure we are all happy with what we are doing. We also discuss our vision for the future of the band to ensure we are all working toward the same goals and everything we do reflects our journey. The great thing is that for us it is about the journey, the gigs we play, the music we are working on, the people we meet. So we enjoy every step! What are the challenges that face Mzaza on a daily basis? Travelling with a double bass! It means we have to drive around in a 12-seater bus! And the double bass was broken during a plane trip coming back from the National Folk Festival! Apart from logistics we are a happy bunch really. Singer/manager Pauline dreads tour booking, but the reward of going on tour is a good motivator! What should we expect for your Byron show? Magic in the disguise of music! Expect to be transported to another world, and lifted above the daily grind, leaving you refreshed, inspired and rejuvenated. Saturday at the Byron Bay Community Centre. Doors 7.30pm, show 8pm, tickets: http://www.byroncentre.com.au / 02 6685 6807.

FROGS ON TOAST Frogs on Toast has been called arguably the funniest show in Australia, has recently won the Australian Entertainment MO Award for Best Show Band. This follows their MO Award win for Best Showband and the Four Kinsmen Production Show. People often ask how the name ‘Frogs on Toast’ came about and the simple answer is that ‘Frogs’ refers to the French theme that features throughout the show and the ‘on Toast’ is part of a northern English expression meaning ‘without effort’ or ‘easy’. The fact that frogs’ legs are a favourite of many French people complements the name overall. Saturday at the Ballina RSL. Doors open 6.30pm, show and dinner starts 7.30pm. Tickets available on line or at the club, $45.90pp.

Older women with attitude: biddies take the stage

We work with what our (male) writer has given us, and one of the wonderful opportunities of being with this play for so long is finding more and more moments of subtlety and connection between us. Why do you think older women become invisible? JH: Older women become invisible because they are not seen as potent and their wisdom is often not acknowledged or taken seriously by society. LW: I wonder if they still are as invisible as they were… invisibility is related to income, I think. The more income, disposable income, the more visible you become. With an ageing population, which has super to spend, I think we can expect more wrinkles on billboards and in magazines. AB: Many audiences have, understandably, been primarily women over fifty. It’s great to have a show that celebrates this demographic. This recognition is one way to honour older women, many of whom do tend to feel somewhat ‘invisible’. Though that raises the question ‘invisible to whom?’ Every night in the theatre we see women who are not afraid to be who and what they are, past trying to impress those who deem themselves to have the ‘power’. I am reminded of Gloria Steinem’s prediction that the revolution to change the world for the better will be led by an army of grey-haired women!

THIS FRIDAY NORPA PRESENTS BIDDIES, A SHOW ABOUT WOMEN WITH A PAST. ACTRESSES LINDEN WILKINSON, ANNIE BYRON, AND JULIE HUDSPETH HAD A CHAT WITH THE ECHO.

I’ll be one of that cohort. This play is a weapon in that arsenal, encouraging women to stand in the glory of who they are, and laugh out loud!

Tell me about the show Biddies? LW: Biddies is a comedy based on a group of women, who discover through an unexpected turn of events they can let go of their pasts and look forward to a better, brighter future. AB: The best thing about Biddies is the phosphorescent wake of laughter and delight it is leaving all over the country. What are the kinds of stories that it tells? LW: The interesting thing about Biddies is that it directs its attention towards women’s education as the source of the characters’ diminishment; the characters discover in the course of the play that from very early on they were made to feel limited or stupid or inadequate. So all their subsequent decisions and choices were therefore based on a flawed premise. Being a comedy, the play doesn’t dwell on the underlying story too heavily but just touches on it, letting the audience slip into reflecting on their own lives, if they want to. AB: The play tells stories from the lives of ordinary women – which is why there is such a high level of recognition. The big-picture story of the play is the challenge of finding authenticity, independence and self-knowledge in the face of habits of meeting the expectations of others – teachers, parents, husbands, children, society in general. The conceit of the play is to put them in a situation that challenges them to reconsider their lives, and support each other through this challenge. Do you have to be careful when stereotyping older women? LW: Our great challenge in the script development/workshop process is to keep connected with women’s education as it was pre-60s; keep seeing their world through their eyes. I think one always has to be careful about playing a stereotype no matter what the role or drama is… you always have to look for the truth, which makes a character more complex and allows for the possibility discovery every performance. AB: Stereotyping anyone is something to be avoided. Our work as actors is to find the truth in the character that ensures they are not stereotypes.

JH: Sexuality is dealt with in an indirect way. There are six women in the play; each has her own take on relationships. Sex is also treated with humour in the play.

How does your show deal with sexuality?

LW: Rather than focusing on performance – sexual performance – or availability, getting it and not getting it – jokes that belong to other generations, sexuality in Biddies is more poignant, I think – its absence is couched in terms of loss of another, grief, loneliness. Also its absence is a source of joy, particularly when it’s been a battleground for abuse. So sexual humour is derived from the spark of allure, of future dalliances, rather than orgasmic aspirations. The ‘C’ word here is Companionship ! AB: The play alludes to sexuality in a number of different ways – whether they are getting any or not. Relationships with men hold a big part in the lives of all these women – whether they have had no husband or three, whether these husbands are living or dead, whether or not their husbands are confident of their own heterosexuality. Do you think we value our elder women enough, and if not, how could we honour them more? JH: No we don’t value older women. We need to acknowledge they are a source of wisdom and have skills that are underutilised. LW: We need to value everyone more – wouldn’t that be great? What are the reactions you are having to the show from women, particularly younger and older? JH: Older women find it affirming and recognise the individuals. Younger women have a more varied response: but overall most find the show humorous. LW: We thought we would be really only relevant to older audiences but that doesn’t seem to be the case… younger female audiences love us as well. Guess we remind them of women they know really well! Friday at Lismore City Hall. One show only, so for tickets: NORPA (Northern Rivers Performing Arts) box office: 1300 066 772, fax: 02 6622 3175, www.norpa.org.au.

c.u.l.t.u.r.e. BYRON THEATRE COMPANY: BECKETT Samuel Beckett (1906–1989), novelist, poet, playwright, and theatre director, is considered one of the most important and influential writers of the 20th century. Born in Ireland, he lived and worked most of his life in France, where he was highly decorated for his participation in the French Resistance in WW2. Beckett was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1969. His play Waiting for Godot changed drama forever and he continued exploring his unique vision with the plays Endgame and Happy Days. He is often labelled an ‘absurdist’ and his extraordinary theatrical images have burned their way into the collective unconscious. They continue to define (and challenge) the avant-garde in theatre. Once seen, his plays haunt us forever. His late plays are both experimental and the assured master-works of one of the greatest theatrical minds that ever lived. Don’t miss the Byron Theatre Company’s Avikal, Linda Rutledge and April Galetti when they present this challenging work at the Drill Hall, Mullumbimby, Friday and Saturday at 7.30pm and 6pm on Sunday. Tix at Barebones Bangalow, Mullumbimby Bookshop or at the door.

EXTREME SNOW The Carlton Dry Snow Collective is a stunning documentary film that takes audiences on a global adventure with adrenaline-fuelled skiers and snowboarders as they challenge themselves on the biggest mountains in Europe, USA and to the wilds of Alaska. The film follows a handful of snow athletes as they make a northern-hemisphere winter journey preparing for the World Heli Challenge in the Southern Alps of New Zealand. Join them on their annual pilgrimage through the well-known snow destinations and big mountains of Chamonix, France, Jackson Hole, Wyoming and the soaring peaks of Alaska. Screening Sunday at the Hotel Great Northern.

ARTY FARTY PARTY AT BANGA BOWLO The Arty Farty Party is a night for artists of all walks to get together. It kicks off this Thursday at the Bangalow Bowls Club and features the house band, also named The Arty Farty Party.

Each week the Arty Farty Party present special guests; music is to be mainly improvised, funk, jazz and avant-garde. MCs are Frank Coorey and Angus Thurgate, poets with comic verse at hand.

Artists are invited to express interest by emailing a short blurb and attaching jpegs of three works to the artyfartyparty@y7mail.com. It’s a cultural feast at the Bangalow Bowlo, Thursday from 7pm.

ROAR GENIUS Wake up and Roar is the art exhibition by Gito von Schlippe at the Space Gallery in Lismore. Hailing from Germany, where he has lived as an artist with exhibitions in Switzerland, Italy and USA, Gito has expanded his artistic expression to ceramics and sculpture. Now he lives with his family in the Australian rainforest. Here he creates life-size sculptures and colourful paintings at his handbuilt home and nature studio. In this collection we see the metamorphosis of a sheep turning into a cougar throughout various paintings and sculptures. On show at Lismore TAFE Gallery until Friday.

E ARIES: This week needs you playing it cool. Thinking courteous instead of assertive. Reasonable rather than righteous. Unflappable, not reactive. Taking things slow and steady rather than fast and furious during midweek Aries moon, when uncontrolled outbursts could burn bridges and leave scorch marks on sensitive situations. F TAURUS: Talk’s cheap, and this week there’s lots going on. Everyone’s talking the talk, but not everyone will walk the walk so don’t rely on promises – not with Venus in the sign of unreliable. Minor drawbacks aside, this week livens up your smarts, style and social cred. G GEMINI: With this week’s triple blitz of Sun/Venus in Gemini joined by Jupiter for the next twelve months, you’re this year’s fortune cookies and lucky ducks. So go ahead and flaunt your stuff, but know that exhausting your nervous system isn’t a smart start to your brilliant year. H CANCER: Since this week’s stressful aspects could include sudden unsettling turnarounds and angry clashes, smart Crabs will keep clear of over-assertive advances or expectations. Which won’t in any way keep Mercury in Cancer from having its say about what’s no longer acceptable in your life. I LEO: The rumbles in this week’s jungle suggest some

but still a retro classic. Acclaimed hoofer Gene Kelly stars as Don Lockwood, one half of a famous on-screen romantic couple from the silent-movie era. His partner Lina believes their cinema romance is the real thing, but when their latest movie is transformed into a musical, and Don gratefully realises he has the perfect voice for the talkies, Lina is left out in the cold when Don falls for Kathy, an aspiring actress brought on board to dub the voice for Lina. Monday at the Dendy in Byron at 10am and 6pm. Tickets are $9 or $6.50–$7.50 for Club Dendy members.

On display until 24 June, Almanac presents the generous donation made to the MCA by Ann Lewis and provides an extraordinary road map of Australian art practice over the last 50 years, shaped by the vision of one of Australia’s best-regarded collectors. The exhibition begins with a 1953 abstract painting by modernist Ralph Balson, and later works by John Firth-Smith and Richard Dunn, and continues through to more recent works by Aboriginal artists from remote regions. The diversity of materials and approaches is reflected in the media and methods employed by the artists – from Robert Klippel’s delicately teetering metal sculptures to Hany Armanious’ hotmelt sculptures that solidify the negative spaces of various wine glasses. Similarly, works by Rosalie Gascoigne and Neil Roberts use found objects which carry the aura of their history. The exhibition includes a number of photographic works by artists such as Rosemary Laing and Anne Zahalka, which combine wit, scale and observation alongside compelling portraits and street studies by photojournalist Jon Lewis Tweed River Art Gallery, 2 Mistral Road, Murwillumbah South, NSW 2484. Phone 02 6670 2790.

Currently showing is children’s book illustrator/author, Roland Harvey. Engaging for all ages, this exhibition traces the development of some of Harvey’s best-known books with original sketches and watercolours.

Steven Giese’s figurative images communicate ideas about the human condition, and often throw light on social and environment concerns, while Ted Harvey documented many international rock acts in 1972 such as Pink Floyd, Elton John and Cat Stevens. Adjoining the Gallery is Palate, a cafe for all seasons, run by award-winning chef Perry Hill (formerly executive chef of The Boathouse on Blackwattle Bay, Sydney). Perry’s passion for cooking with local seasonal produce led him to a simple concept – the daily menu. To celebrate the famous Lismore Lantern Parade, Palate will be hosting a Harvest Tasting Dinner based on some of their favourite suppliers on the evening of June 23rd.

cinemareview Prometheus There is no getting away from it; Noomi Rapace is simply indestructible. If you thought she did it tough when she had that hideous dragon tattoo on her back, you should see what she has to endure with an astronaut’s perspex bubble on her head. Her self-enacted Caesarian – she does for pregnancy what Hitler did for vegetarianism – is a mini gore-fest. It is 2093, we’re on a planet an unimaginable distance from Earth and, with the blokes on her space ship dropping like flies, mighty little Noomi is entreated by David (Michael Fassbender) – ‘Doctor Shaw, I need your help!’ Which is obvious, for by this time he is just a severed head on the floor. In a film that takes itself way too seriously, the scene was foot-stompingly idiotic,

drawing guffaws from those around me. A sort of latter-day replicant, David is deliberately if enigmatically made to resemble Peter O’Toole’s TE Lawrence, but the early excerpt from David Lean’s masterpiece only renders all that follows as so much bunkum. Director Ridley Scott, with two classics of the sci-fi genre to his credit – Alien 1979), to which this is a prequel, and Blade Runner (1982) – has sadly and rather tiresomely bombed out with this messy and overblown fantasy. The opening sequence, while the credits are rolling and in which the 3D can be most keenly appreciated (you forget it’s there after a while), has a spellbinding menace, but it doesn’t take long for the wheels to fall off. For a start, there are too many characters vying for your attention,

including Charlize Theron, looking uncannily like a female Lawrence, as the daughter of a galactic Godfather (Guy Pearce). There are enough good bits to be amused by – I especially loved the snaky things that came out of the black oil to slaughter a couple of hapless crew members – and lip service is paid to deep philosophical questions, but CGI prevails. It’s all very confusing; is a giant octopus really the master of the Universe? ~ John Campbell

Trishna After having a crack at Jude (1996), the always-stimulating British director Michael Winterbottom has turned again to Thomas Hardy for inspiration. This time he has gone so far as to transplant his story from Hardy’s dour and damp, nineteenth-century Wessex to the heat and dust of Rajasthan and the bright lights of Bollywood. Based on Tess of the D’Urbervilles, Trishna (Freida Pinto) is a dirt-poor country girl whose humble life of low expectation is turned upside down by a chance encounter. My recollection of the novel was vague, but throughout this adaptation of it I kept wondering ‘where’s the other bloke?’ and ‘what about the tragic heroine’s disputed lineage?’ The latter question is tenuously dealt with by Trishna’s connection with both rural poverty and big-city glamour, but Winterbottom has dispensed with the two men in Tess’s life to embody them both in the patrician Jay (Riz Ahmed). The film flounders in long periods of torpor, its sluggishness accentuated by the extreme passivity of the central character. Trishna, as an everywoman of low social status, is a victim of others’ demands and expectations. Her beauty catches the eye of Jay, who employs her in one of his father’s hotels. Seduced by him, she returns in shame to her village, but the lovers are reunited and happily set up house in a swank apartment in Mumbai. The relationship frays when Jay returns from a trip to London. His transformation from besotted to hateful is a soap opera turnaround, his sudden caddishness and Trishna’s reaction to it not quite credible. Flawed though it is, the movie has a sublime soundtrack and is a visual mnemonic for Indophiles who thought that The Marigold Hotel might have been a bit heavy-

handed with the air-brush – one fleeting shot, of a crowded night market with two monkeys caught in the light as they scramble along the telegraph wires, is fabulous. You get the impression that Winterbottom may have been captivated by all that he pointed his camera at, which is fair enough. ~ John

to him and wife Muriel at the end of his civil service career. Along with a flawless cast, the Campbell colour, vibrancy and chaotic calm of India is irresistible – a particularly beautiful scene has Sonny talking with his girlfriend on the wall of an ancient What a joy… A disparate group well as boys dive into its cool of discouraged, jaded codgers depths. So easily the film might in grey, stodgy England arrive at the awful truth that they have irrevocably entered their autumnal years. But need those years necessarily be ‘declining’? In India, an exuberant if not terribly businesslike young entrepreneur, Sonny (Dev Patel), has hit upon the idea of converting a crumbling Rajasthani palace into a retirement home for cashedup foreigners – ‘there are many countries,’ he explains with brutal innocence, ‘that don’t like old people.’ Director John Madden spares us the sweat and grime of Calcutta and the grim clutter of the twenty-first century Indian metropolis, but he also sensibly averts the yellow brick road of ‘cute and quirky’ – though Madden wants to warm the heart, this is no sanitised, patronising travelogue. Unprepared they may be, but the characters involved will be changed in some way by their new surrounds – ‘all of life is here’, Graham (Tom Wilkinson), a lawyer who grew up in India, tells the xenophobic Jean (Penelope Wilton). Graham, gay and guilt ridden, is seeking out a lost lover; Evelyn (Judi Dench) is trying to find her feet following the death of her husband of four decades; randy Norman (Ronald Pickup) is after a bit of boudoir action; Muriel (Maggie Smith) has made the trip to get a cheap hip replacement; Madge (Celia Imre) is the gold-digger, while Douglas (Bill Nighy) hopes for something better than the unsatisfactory options left

THURSDAY 14 ABC 1

Since most of the movies this week are crap, we thought we’d look at a couple of new series which have considerable merit. No surprise they’re both on ABC1. 1. Shaun Micallef’s Mad As Hell (Friday 8pm and repeated on Sunday at 10.05pm) has been a consistently funny satire on current affairs (and the English language) so far, as long as Micallef is not inveigled into cross-promotional interviews for movies such as Mabo. The Goon Show is one of his major influences, and you can see it in the style of the program, which is more absurdist than many Australian outings. More at www.abc.net.au/tv/madashell. 2. In our choice of forensic dramas The Body Farm (Saturday, 8.30pm) beats out the American CSI clones and its more lugubrious and self-important British counterpart Silent Witness. Despite some gross examples of latex and fibreglass moulded into human body parts – what fun they must have making those! – this drama has a sense of humour about itself. This is helped by the excellent cast which includes an Asbergic scientist who apologises to insects he kills and a detective inspector played by Keith Allen, the chap who did the best camp version ever of the Sheriff of Nottingham.

Byron Shire and Arakwal people commit to shared future Byron Shire Council and the Budjalung of Byron Bay Aboriginal – Arakwal People have formally committed to their ongoing relationship. On Monday May 28 at Council’s Chambers in Mullumbimby, Council general manager Graeme Faulkner

and mayor Jan Barham, in the presence of Arakwal elder Aunty Dulcie Nichols, signed a statement of commitment. The commitment is designed to strengthen the working relationship between Byron Shire Council and the Bundjalung of

Byron Bay Aboriginal – Arakwal People. The relationship between the two groups has grown since Council in 1998, became the first local government in NSW to establish a formal relationship with its Native Title claimants.

Happiness study reveals happy pensioners, debunks ‘middle-age blues’ People are at their happiest at retirement age and their most miserable in their geriatric years, a new study has found. The study into the ‘happiness wave’, conducted by Dr Tony Beatton of Queensland University of Technology and Professor Paul Frijters of The University of Queensland, has revealed how happiness changes over a lifetime for people living in Australia, Germany and Britain. ‘We all strive towards happiness, but we wanted to find out at what point in life we actually reach this goal,’ said Dr Beatton. The same study has debunked the idea of the middle-age blues, blaming an over-representation of unhappy respondents in previous surveys. Collecting data from more than 60,000 people in Australia, Britain and Germany, the pair found people were happi-

est as they entered retirement age (55–75), and most miserable close to death (80–90). For a representative 18-year-old with a happiness level of 7 on a 10-point scale, the peak happiness age was found to be 65 in Australia, reaching 7.3, compared with Britain (7.2 at aged 70), and Germany (7 at 65). ‘Our interpretation of these findings is that individuals over 55 no longer have unrealistic expectations of what their life will be like and simply enjoy their reasonable health and wealth, leading to a marked surge in happiness. As their health starts to deteriorate after 75, their happiness plunges,’ said Dr Beatton. The study considered figures from three surveys – the Household, Income and Labour Dynamics in Australia (HILDA) survey of 16,000 people in Australia, the British Household Panel Survey

(BHPS) of 25,000 in England and the German Socioeconomic Panel Survey (GSOEP) of 20,600 people in Germany. It found in Australia, happiness peaks at 7.3 by age 65 but then drops increasingly fast as death approaches, with happiness levels at 6.6 at the age of 90 and over. In Britain, the figures were similar, with the happiness peak slightly later at age 70, and the peak itself not as high as for Australians, reaching only 7.2, then declining to 6.3 over the age of 90. ‘Life in old age is clearly relatively better in Australia than the UK, perchance because of the better weather, more generous public pensions, and more space for the grey nomads to roam,’ said Dr Beatton. The study has since been published in the Journal of Economic Behaviour and Organisation.

A murder of crows saw the crows by the roadside. It was not unusual around the edges of the town of Greenery. Motorists, running their precious cargo of children to school in SUVs, ignored the 80k zone and ran down wildlife in their haste to be on time – and to get back to their friends at the café or the morning yoga session. Echidna, possums, bandicoots, swamp hens – rich pickings. I admire the crows, if a little grudgingly. They are smart birds and rarely fall victim to speeding cars. They have a busy social life, if their calls to each other are any indication. To tell the truth, the roads would be a mess without their scavenging service. The only thing unusual that morning was that the crows were not exactly roadside, but a little way off, a black feathery tangle in a patch of swamp reeds. Perhaps a swamp hen had staggered there after being hit by mum’s taxi. The collective noun for crows? A murder. Seems appropriate, though they are more recyclers than assassins. Magpies come in a tiding, though they’re just inclined to knock off a small bird if the occasion arises. Butcherbirds don’t get a look-in in the ‘Terms of Multitude’ appendix to John Train’s handy 1980 reference Remarkable Words with Astonishing Origins. Handy in that I enjoy picking up odd bits of information – like a bowerbird perhaps. Handy also at trivia nights until my winning streak on the newspaper team paled after too many claret-soaked evenings drifted past midnight. If only they culled the number of questions to fifty. An abattoir, that would be butcherbirds. Strange that Australians use the French for their slaughterhouses rather than something bluntly Anglo-Saxon. It can’t be handily shortened, either, like barbie, brekky, bikkie. Abattre, to fell. One fell swoop, goodbye wren. But I am not hired to admire crows. A reporter for the Greenery Post, I was headed for a private house in Frangipani Close, where civicminded residents were collecting and packing goods to send to flood victims in Queensland. Rain still hung in the humid air, the clouds threatening to send down another dump. Water glistened on the wing mirrors of the removal van, supplied gratis by a local company, outside the brick house of the philanthropists. I was not surprised to be greeted at the door by Jenny Rose, a do-gooder on an epic scale. Piercing blue eyes took in everything and did not suffer fools. She roused her fellow volunteers to greater effort in the same way a crime boss might encourage a minion to knock over more banks or find out how walking felt without the requisite number of knees. ‘Peter, you’re late,’ said Rose, smiling almost accusingly. When had a Post journo ever been on time? Who knew when the photographer would arrive? I shrugged, and got on with the who, what, when, where and why. I could have written it in my sleep and filled in the quotes myself. ‘I’m sorry Grace is not here to talk to you,’ said Rose. ‘After all, she’s the main organiser.’ The reason for Grace’s absence became apparent later when I returned to the Post office. It seemed the weekly Post and the town of Greenery had grown up together, had slept incestuously as it were, locked together in a symbiosis of rumour, outrage, revelation, boredom, goodwill and footy. The Post had been there for only thirty years but the life of the sub-tropic village stretched back to the 1870s, when the cedargetters were supplanted by dairy farmers and graziers, banana growers and fishers. The town enjoyed its own river and a harbour. The Norfolk, named after some dissolute English duke, ran lazily among mangroves to the sea, where rock walls protected a small harbour of prawn trawlers, a fleet growing smaller each year as the local catch waned and imports waxed. Running between the rock walls was a hazard at the best of times and a good source of Post headlines: ‘Fisherman Swept Onto Rocks’, ‘Pleasure Boat Capsized by Freak Wave’. Sometimes I longed to headline the real reason: ‘Pleasure Boat Cap-

sized By Fuckwit Behind Wheel’. But in provincial journalism nature is always the enemy, not the foolish and unprepared who trespass on her turf. The owners of the Post, a couple of 1970s hippies who had moved up from Sydney, took advantage of the hayseed laziness of the Greenery Gazette, which had moved its operations south to bigger Ballina. By the time the original paper had realised its territory had been poached, it was too late. The Post owners came with publishing skills, with new ideas of graphic design and a line into the ethos of the new settlers, who came with marijuana and a knowledge of at least three different types of coffee. Just as Greenery was declining as an agricultural service centre, as the dairy farmers sold up and the fishermen went on welfare, the new settlers brought new life and a supply of mostly-legitimate money. Cafés sprung up where co-ops once stood, pastries replaced corned beef sandwiches. The old guard jacked up at first, staunch National Party folk who remembered when the Anthony family ruled the north coast like a private fiefdom, but some realised that a dirty hippy’s money was also part of honest commerce. As for the real estate agents, they had the sharp sensibilities of a murder of crows. My boss, Malfease John Edwin McMedicant, a sardonic Scot, has been the Post editor since 1992. Originally a freelance hack, he has also a knowledge of pre-computer typesetting and layout and can spot a comma in the wrong font, a skill lost on the general public. We share a love of trivia but that’s about it. Left to his own devices by owners happily busy with their property portfolios, McMedicant gradually retreated to the musty sanctum of his office and left the digging to his reporters. There he spent the week crafting an editorial of 500 words or so, doling out stories, sampling clarets sent round by friendly bottleshop owners, and playing on his computer a mindless role-playing game called Mages Of Morph, which went on forever and helped him relax, according to McMedicant. It helped that one of the baristas at his favourite café was also an addict, and they could be found in the morning discussing the various merits of staves versus swords or the best enhancements for armour. ‘Murder most foul,’ said McMedicant in his best Shakespearean voice when I arrived at his doorway. ‘What?’ ‘Murder most foul, Sharp. While you were talking packaged goods and benevolence at Frangipani Close, Grace Cossington Palfrey was lying dead in the swamp just up the road.’ ‘Oh shit.’ ‘Shit indeed. Hop on your bike and duck out there again, will you? If your mobile phone works and the fucking photographer’s mobile phone works, let him know too. We have our front page, Sharp, and we can spend the rest of the week drinking. At least I can.’ McMedicant turned back to the Mages, thus dismissing me.

Siblings on the Wright path for ASP world domination The Wright family name is synonymous with professional surfing with Owen and Tyler competing on the elite men’s and women’s ASP World Championship Tours. Now, after a two-year hiatus from competition, their sister Kirby is breaking back into the competitive scene. Two years ago Kirby won the prestigious ASP Women’s Star event at Newcastle’s Surfest and was looking like she was headed for the Top 17, until she gave it all away. ‘There were a few reason why I stopped competing,’ Kirby said. ‘But the main reason was that I wasn’t enjoying it anymore and I was keen to start working full time. I know a lot of people didn’t understand why I did that, especially when I was surfing alright and could have tried to qualify. I just didn’t want to do it anymore. I’ve been brought up with the saying “do what you love and what makes you happy” and I’d lost the love and happiness that competing brought.’ This year Kirby had a change of heart and decided to get back into a competition rashie. She just missed out on entering the Australian Open of Surfing, then went on to win the trials at Surfest and made the 6-Star Round of 48. Her breakthrough event was the 6-Star Telstra Drug Aware Pro where she made the Quarterfinals, but was eliminated by eventual event winner Courtney Conlogue (USA). ‘When I stopped competing I never thought I’d go back,’ Kirby said. ‘But here I am almost six months into the year and loving my decision to come back. I just wanted to get back into my surfing at first and after two years off I knew it was going to take time and I was excited to see where the decision took me. After six months of surfing, training and trying to improve on everything I’d slacked off on in the two years, I thought “yeah why not let’s give this a go” and I’m having some fun with it.’ Kirby cites a conversation with her brother Owen, current ASP World No. 10 as one of her inspirations to get back

into competitive surfing. ‘I think what really clicked for me to compete again was a conversation with my brother Owen,’ Kirby said. ‘I’m not like Owen or Tyler as pretty much anyone who has met us knows. He knew I’d been thinking about coming back and just opened my eyes to other ways of competing, ways I’d never thought about and ways that suited me.’ Over the last two years the level of women’s competitive surfing has been going through the roof thanks to the likes of Carissa Moore, Sally Fitzgibbons, Stephanie Gilmore and the exciting crew of young women on the ASP Women’s World Championship Tour. ‘So much has changed!’ Kirby said. ‘These girls have taken women’s surfing to another level, it’s awesome. It’s a shame there’s not as many events as there used to be, but the girls have excelled anyway, that’s the main thing. I wouldn’t say my surfing is a hundred per cent, but it’s the best it’s ever been and I still want to keep improving.’

Now that she’s back competing does Kirby see herself joining her sister Tyler on the ASP Women World Championship Tour? ‘I love Tyler!’ said Kirby. ‘She is seriously the best sister anyone could have. It would be great to qualify and travel around together and try kick each other’s butts in the water. I’m lucky to see the standard of the WCT everyday. It pushes me to go even harder and not slack off even though sometimes I want to. This year my goal is to make the top five on the ASP world rankings, but I like that I have no pressure on myself if that doesn’t happen. I’m just really happy that I’ve had the opportunity to come back and being able to travel to all these beautiful places and enjoy parts of the world that I never would have if I wasn’t competing. Kirby is currently seventeenth on the ASP Women’s World Ranking, six places off qualifying for the ASP Women’s World Championship Tour. It’s going to be an excit-

Daily surf reports with Rusty Miller! – echonetdaily.net.au

Wright brother Owen, took a narrow second place to Kelly Slater during their round four clash in draining 1.5 – 2 metre waves at Restaurants, Tavarua, Fiji on Saturday June 9, 2012. Wright posted a pair of excellent scoring rides, an 8.50 and a 9.40 (both out of ten) but they were still not enough to defeat the 11X ASP World Champion who won the heat with a perfect 10.00 and an 8.83.

Where surfing and gymnastics meet Competition surfing is more progressive and stylish than ever before. With innovative manoeuvres becoming part of main events on the international surfing calendar, surf coaching is moving to the next level. Surfing NSW and the NSW Academy of Gymnastics joined forces in an effort to develop a component of the SPC (Surfing NSW Performance Camp), that would breed confidence and build skills in young surfers.

ing finish to the 2012 season Kirby Wright on her way to a fifth place finish at the Telstra Drug with only a few more women’s Aware Pro. Photo ASP/Robertson 6-Star events left on the calendar and a bottleneck of talented surfers fighting for precious qualification points.

Specific to progressive surfing is the aerial practice participants achieved in the SPC camp; collaborating with the NSW Academy of Gymnastics was key in putting the young surfers in the right mind frame. Combining gymnastics with surfing, and the use of video analysis software for kids at this early stage in their surfing, will be fundamental to the development of these up-and -coming NSW juniors. Blake Johnson is part of the

SNSW Elite coaching team, which is headed by Surfing NSW state coaching director Hamish Nelson. Hamish and his team are working on strategies that are specific to junior development in surfing camps up and down the NSW coast.

Ray White Group welcomes rate cut The Ray White Group has welcomed last week’s rate cut of 25 basis points, saying it is in tune with a changing tide in Australian property transactions. Ray White Group joint chairman Brian White said that the Reserve Bank cut for the second consecutive month supports a cycle shift in real estate, where the floor price, particularly in Queensland, has been found and significantly increased transactional numbers have been recorded. ‘Ongoing doom and gloom in the property market appears to have been dramatically overstated, we’ve seen an unexpected and exciting change in our recently reported May figures,’

M r White said. ‘ T h e Ray White Group hit the best monthly sales results for two years. In fact, that stellar May result followed a soft April month, so it’s a serious indication of a changing tide.’ He described the Group’s figures for the month just passed as ‘extremely encouraging’ with the total coming in at $2.5 billion.

ECHO PROPERTY BUSINESS DIRECTORY CONVEYANCING

‘Both Queensland and Western Australia improved dramatically recording 23 per cent and 28 per cent on the previous year respectively.’ Support from the RBA for side-line buyers and existing homeowners paying off a mortgage is encouraging, Mr White said. ‘We support aspiring homeowners to engage in the market at time when the reported doom and gloom is proving untrue.’

ing and unemployment. The report found gross spending on housing finance was $20.3 billion during the month of February – equating to an increase of $1 billion. It also found home loan affordability had increased giving home hunters a reprieve.

‘On average, Australian households now need approximately 32.9 per cent of the family income to service their home loan,’ said PRDnationwide research director Aaron Maskrey. Australian property conditions are once again luring investors, according to the figures.

Mr Maskrey said 33.9 per cent of the property market is now investor financed and is expected to increase as rental yields across the nation continue to become more attractive. The research director said declines in property values were expected to slow over 2012. ‘Looking at the macro level property market, the reality is that the rate of decline in values have slowed and could be even stagnant. ‘Investors could now be tempted back into the property market as the rate of decline in values erodes away, while the equity market remains not only turbulent, but has provided returns inferior to fixed bonds over the past five years.’ Mr Maskrey said for the month of February 2012, investor financial commitment increased by $400 million to record $6.9 billion.

At last a guernsey for Big Solar. One of Australia’s largest solar projects is set to go ahead in NSW following the announcement of a $129.7 million grant from the Australian government. Electricity and gas retailer AGL Energy, together with solar photovoltaic (PV) manufacturer First Solar, emerged as the successful grantees in the Australian government’s Solar Flagships Program. The $450 million project, to be built across two sites in Broken Hill and Nyngan, will see the establishment of 159 Megawatt advanced thin-film PV solar plant with capacity to generate enough electricity to power about 30,000 homes.

Now that the Greens councillor Simon Richardson has launched his campaign as a mayoral candidate – gosh, that surprised everyone – the election is on in earnest and not a moment too soon because there’s only 89 sleeps to go! You’ll also learn in the letters on page 14 that Karin Kolbe has announced her candidacy for councillor and the Community Independents defend themselves against Backlash’s shocking scepticism.

This sparked the question by an Echo drudge that ‘if they do this in front of

It’s your choice’, so buy free-range organic eggs from your neighbours or your local farmers market or store and, if you must, organic chicken meat from a reputable local butcher. See more background at www. voiceless.org.au/the-issues/ meat-chickens. And this week in Sydney there’s the intriguing Animal Death Symposium which intends to explore ‘how animal and human death are conceptualised; how they diverge, differ and also connect in profound ways’.

Now the blood sport of hunting has been allowed into our state’s national parks under the guise of feral animal control, we can expect more hair-raising if not lethal incidents as a result of stray bullets from shooters in and around the parks. A young family in Royalla in the state’s south was lucky to escape injury when a shot was fired through their front window about two months ago. Last week, police caught up with the shooter and charged him with the dangerous use of a firearm and being unlicensed to use it. Police believe
